net: mdio: fix owner field for mdio buses registered using ACPI
[ Upstream commit 30b605b8501e321f79e19c3238aa6ca31da6087c ]
Bus ownership is wrong when using acpi_mdiobus_register() to register an
mdio bus. That function is not inline, so when it calls
mdiobus_register() the wrong THIS_MODULE value is captured.
